Well for most part, at least in the terms of military, samurai are not around. And they were not a bad thing. But you say "normal" like it is the same for everyone. Japan does not have much of a "normal" military past. As I stated earlier. Most recently it was WWII, and not too much before that, Japan still had samurai. Im merely stating "normal" isnt as easy as you make it seem.
